Creating XML for Modifier XTensions software
All XML used with Modifier XTensions software uses the Modifier DTD. This DTD is
documented in full in "Modifier schema (annotated)."
In general, the structure for addressing items in a particular layout is as follows:
<PROJECT>
<LAYOUT>
<ID NAME="[name of layout]">
<[Item being addressed]>
<[Parameters of item]>
</[Item being addressed]>
</LAYOUT>
</PROJECT>
For more information, see "Using QuarkXPress Server."
Layer XTensions software
You can use QuarkXPress Server Layer XTensions software to control the visibility of
specific layers in a rendered QuarkXPress project. You can also add layers, delete layers,
edit layer attributes, and control whether layers are rendered.
When you use the getdocinfo namespace, QuarkXPress Server returns information about
items on all of the layers in the QuarkXPress project, including layers that are not visible.
Clients can use the layer parameter to specify a layer (even a hidden layer) to be rendered.
For example, the URL http://QXPServer:8080/doc.qxp?layer=layer1 renders only
the layer named "layer1" in the project named "doc.qxp."
Clients can specify more than one layer in a single URL. For example, the URL
http://QXPServer:8080/doc.qxp?layer=layer1,layer2 renders the layers named
"layer1" and "layer2."
For information about layer preferences, see "Preferences Layers."
If Suppress Output is selected for a layer, QuarkXPress Server does not render that layer
when producing PDF, EPS, or PostScript files.
InteractiveDesigner Server XTensions software
InteractiveDesigner XTensions software allows QuarkXPress Server to render both Print
and Interactive layouts in QuarkXPress projects as SWF (Flash) files. If you render a Print
layout as an SWF file, you can use the right and left arrow keys to navigate between pages
in the SWF file.
To render an Interactive layout in a QuarkXPress project as a SWF file when SWF is not
the QuarkXPress Server default render type, use the SWF namespace, as follows:
http://[server]:[port]/swf/[projectname]?layout="[layoutname]"
